Bethlehem

Nothing on this post is intended to make a political statement

Last Saturday I traveled with some friends to Bethlehem. Bethlehem is in the West Bank so we had to pass through a check point to get there.

We went to the Church of the Nativity where, according to many Christian traditions, Jesus was born.

We also went to Milk Grotto. It is here, according to Christian tradition, that the Holy Family took shelter on their Journey to Egypt.

This is a cemetery behind the Milk Grotto
